PU-ERH

I was expecting the flavor to be way more intense, I didn't know what to expect but I do love to brew beer and make other fermented things. It has a nice, mild, fermented, umami flavor that just comes across as a nice black tea with a slight fermented note.

Very dark rich tea. Wonderful with alittle organic honey and iced for a summer pick me up. Even my husband enjoyed it iced.

The flavor was good - mild black tea (I drank it straight to get an idea of the flavor without cream or sugar or anything). However, it had a 'fishy' aroma that wasn't pleasant. I had both my husband and son try a bit and while they liked the taste, the smell was off-putting. Guess the fermented-ness just isn't our cup of tea

This is a mild Pu-erh that is brewed without the rinsing that is necessary for the Pu-erh in cakes. A tea to drink all day long.

I really enjoyed this tea with it's darker flavor.

When I read the reviews about this tea I found out the one either loves it or not, nothing in between. I decided to order it anyway and give it a try. I love it. I love it’s earthy flavor and scent. It was a good choice for me, however it may not be for everyone.

I've heard people say that Pu-erh is an acquired taste, but not so for me... I liked it from the very first cup. Rich, deeply flavored brew that pairs well with milk (dairy or other), and I occasionally add honey for a treat. Golden Moon used to sell a pu-erh chai (several years ago) that I loved, so adding the chai spices is another idea. Usually, though, I brew it strong and add a dash of milk. Delicious!

Fermented Tea? I thought could that be good? It couldn't right? I gave it a try. Nothing ventured nothing gained and boy am I glad I did. WOW!!! Fermented tea where have you been? I found a new favorite tea. I expected a sour taste but that was not the case. This tea was complex and satisfying. It's now my afternoon pick me up.

This is my favorite tea for my morning cuppa all winter long. I love the richness and earthy notes. No tea stands up against it. Golden Moon is one the only tea companies who sells it. I've bought it multiple times, and I have been happy with their service.

My daughter recently discovered this tea, so I ordered it for her. She said this is the best of this type of tea she's ever had

I've been drinking Golden Moon's Pu-erh for years and it remains my all time favorite morning tea. I get 2-3 steeps from 5 teaspoons. I love that GM has gone totally organic, too!

Before finding this company, I had to,drive at least 50 miles to find this tea that I do enjoy and have for years. I love the health benefits and the fact that it is a high quality,organic variety. I add cardamom and cinnamon at times to make my on chai and will be ordering again.

I like Pu-erh for it's earth taste. I found I can infuse this tea more than once ( something I don't have very good luck with usually). It makes a really nice ice tea with lemon and honey.

Nice, smooth flavor. not the very best Pu-erh I've ever had (longer aged and in small "cakes"), but decent for the price. I like it especially well for digestion after meals.

I ordered Pu erh other day and received it quickly as promised. It is excellent! I first had this tea in China and have usedit ever since. Golden Moon is an excellent source and i will continue to order my tea from them. S

I never heard of pu-erh tea before until I watch the documentary "All In This Tea".
I was intrigued by the thought of an aged tea. I was also unaware of how mild a black tea could be, because other black teas I have tasted before were bitter and sharp.
I do not know where some of the other reviewers here get the idea the pu-erh tea smells or taste like rotten fish, it has an earthly, mild aroma which is why I like it for relaxation and meditation.
Of course everyone has their preferences so other reviewers who have expressed their feelings about the aroma may decide to choose another tea. I prefer to order tea pu-erh tea over most others because of the simple, plain, earthy aroma and taste.
I also am looking forward to my regular order with Golden Moon Tea. I was like other reviewers here who found pu-erh tea but later wanted to get more & could not, I do not want to be without again.

Apparently some reviewers like this tea but I don't understand why. I guess it's a matter of taste.
Only once in our decades of drinking tea had we dumped a pot of tea as undrinkable, until this one. We found the strong smell of rotting fish to be overwhelming. The taste was just a unpleasant. Color was nice and dark. Unless you know this tea and like it, you should avoid it.

I originally found pu-erh Chai tea in a Home Goods store. I brewed and drank the tea in two weeks. When I went back for more, I was told that they did not always have that brand of tea. They bought odd lots of various tea brands. I went to the internet and found Pu-erhs web site. I ordered several different teas. They were all really clean, full flavored and I enjoyed each one.

My wife and I are enjoying our tasty Pu-erh tea. It is very refreshing and smells good also. We will buy it again when our ½ pound is getting low.

I am drinking Pu-erh for health reasons so I tried Pu-erh from several different sources before I tried Golden Moon's. Pu-erh from Golden Moon tasted the best, maybe because there is no added artificial ingredients and USDA organic. I truly recommend this Pu-erh tea.
Thanks Golden Moon for providing us with pure tea without any added ingredients.

I liked this tea very much. Loved the deep earthy flavor as I do a three-steep-process to bring out many deep-under-lying flavors.
Will definitely be one of my repeating favorites in the future.
Thanks!
:-)

Great tea. Give it a quick rinse with hot water before steeping. Comes out with a deep complex flavor and is great instead off coffee. Add a little milk or have it straight up, good either way and needs no sweetener.

I have drank only one cup of the Pu-ehr so far but I like it very well. I will be ordering more. Another great tea from a great tea company!

Very nice rich flavor. Thank you for sharing a very hard to get tea! I have always wanted to try it.

pur-erh tea is a nice soothing tea, it makes me feel good when I drink it. I like a strong flavor in a tea.

I agree, "no more coffee!". Since discovering Golden Moon tea, I have given up coffee and never looked back. I haven't missed it at all and look forward to my morning tea. Now my biggest problem is deciding which of their delicious teas to have. Pu erh is my "go to" cup and never disappoints. Flavorful, smooth, delicious!

I have always loved my coffee and it was what I considered my treat for myself. Since I've bought your puerh tea, I've completely switched over. I thought I would miss the richness of my cream & coffee but this tea is so rich on its own, it's incredible. Love love this tea.

enjoying the tea very much

*Splendid*

Puerh is probably my favorite tea and this one did not disappoint. I was initially disappointed that the leaves were not larger, however, the flavor of this tea measures up to other, most expensive organic puerhs. It can be steeped several times.

I always try to have some Pu-Erh on hand for my morning tea. I always look forward to slight variations in each orders flavor and brewing qualities.
In many orders, I only have gotten one batch that I was less than fully satisfied with.

I was very excited to receive this tea and try Pu-Erh for the first time. This tea didn't let me down. This tea has a very strong earthy scent which I really enjoy. Once steeped the tea has a very rich dark color. The flavor is like no other tea I've tried. I really enjoy this tea and will definitely be buying again.

I love the smooth earthiness of this tea. So rich & satisfying, I'm glad I gave this one a try and plan to buy again.

It is a rich tea with redish highlights. I drink it hot or iced. It keeps me balanced in my ever busy life as a healer/teacher.It is my favorite tea.
If I am in need of sweetness, honey and almond milk due the trick but mostly I drink it black

This is one of my favorite black teas. i love it with some honey and light cream. I introduced this tea to my stepson and it is one of his favorites when he isn't drinking his speciality coffees.

I wanted to expand my tea selection from my usual Tie Guan Yin Oolong. Reading about Puerh, it intrigued me. I was a little hesitant that it would be a strong, astringent tea. That is not the way it tastes. It is an earthy flavor that's very smooth. Not what I expected. I still have my Tie Guan Yin, but have added Puerh to my collection. I drink it in the morning and afternoon. The flavor might not be for everyone, but I would definitely recommend trying it.

For some people Pu-erh's are an instant hit , but for most , myself included , puerh is an acquired taste , like a scotch whiskey or certain ethnic foods . After you've tried them a few times , they grow on you . Pu-erh is the most consumed tea in the world , probably mostly in asia , but it is gaining a huge following here in the states and I'm sure Europe..Plus Pu-erh , as it ages becomes even

Pu-erh tea is unique in its taste and flavor. It has a rich earthy aroma that no other tea has and is a smooth and soothing beverage. I enjoy drinking Pu-erh tea in the morning with milk and sugar but also after a meal or in the afternoon plain. Either way it is a refreshing and enjoyable drink. Pu-erh is the fine wine of teas.

I love the mouth feel and flavor great with an after dinner pipe

I have substituted pu-erh for coffee in the morning. I have never looked back. I love it's full body smoothness and healthful attributes. The smell is mystical and it's a great way to start the day. Mark

If you're like me, and have been scared off by the discussions of pu-erh tea ("tastes like fish" or "smells like dead leaves"), don't be afraid anymore. I have almost purchased pu-erh's several times, but worried that the cost of a package would be wasted if I just hated the tea. Not even sure why I was so worried, because it's just tea, and if I don't like it, I can always pass it along, but th

This is a very nice loose Puerh tea! It must be brewed properly and preferably Gong Fu Cha to bring out its complex profile. Puerh tea is unique. It is not for everyone and often takes time to grow on some people. Also, one side note...if you are brewing in a regular tea pot or such please do a hot water wash of the tea. Fill with hot water and swish around for about 10 sec. then discard the

I have spent many years in China and have acquired a taste for high quality Pu-erh tea.

This is one of te best.

This tea was a wonderful suprise, but I am sure not for everyone. I like my tea very sweet and this is a tea that is all the better for it! Rich, deep and earthy, does not taste like it smells.
